[PATCH v2 09/12] hw/arm: xenpvh: Reverse virtio-mmio creation order

[Edgar E. Iglesias]

From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" <edgar.iglesias@amd.com>

We've been creating the virtio-mmio devices in forwards order
but since the qbus lists prepend (rather than append) entries,
the virtio busses end up with decreasing base address order.

Xen enables virtio-mmio nodes in forwards order so there's been
a missmatch. So far, we've been working around this with an
out-of-tree patch to Xen.

This reverses the order making sure the virtio busses end up
ordered with increasing base addresses avoiding the need to
patch Xen.
